Bengaluru, May 8: Accusing the Bharatiya Janata Party of “playing the politics of lies”, former Union minister and senior advocate Ram Jethmalani urged the Indians in general and Kannadigas in particular to reject the saffron party and put an end to the falsehoods of the Union government.
Speaking at the ‘Meet the Press’ programme at the Press Club of Bangalore, Jethmalani said: “Modi had come to me and had praised my fight against corruption, and I trusted him. Because of this, I helped them from 2008 until my expulsion from the party; I even drew up their manifesto, which was a mirror of change and development.”
Referring to the BJP manifesto, he said the saffron party had spoken of bringing back black money to the country. However, during the last four years, no efforts have been made to achieve this objective. Still, BJP national president Mr Amit Shah talks about black money in his election campaigns, which sounds funny, he said.
“I have made 18 charges against the BJP government and they have not replied to even a single charge. The Supreme Court will be giving its judgment on black money before July 15. Then, everyone will know the truth. Mr Modi had promised to bring back black money and give Rs 15 lakh to every citizen and it has turned out to be a lie. I was a fool to believe that,'' Mr Jethmalani said.
Jethmalani said: “People should be wary of the promises made by the Modi government, and North India is already suffering because of trusting him.” He urged voters not to fall for false promises of BJP. Voters should cast their ballot not on the basis of religious ideology, he said.
Jethmalani said both the Congress and the BJP had failed to respond to his request to get the list of 1,400 accounts in the Swiss Bank. “They failed me because they have vested interests,” he added.
Mangaluru, Jan 11: Reacting to the recent video clippings provided to the media by former chief minister HD Kumaraswamy in connection with the December 19 unrest in Mangaluru, city Police Commissioner Dr PS Harsha on Saturday said that the video has to be seen in a proper sequence to come to a conclusion on the happenings of that day.
